Topic Wiki

Thread summary:

Trump walks in a room.

1. Moshe123 shoots at him because he is pure evil, 2. ilherman+hachover jump in front of the bullets because Trump is our savior. 3. aygart tackles Moshe123 because Trump is better than HRC, 4. but Baruch can't stand Trump so he tells aygart he's crazy and Trump is a madman. 5. ExGingi would like to point out that who cares what he is, all that matters is the supreme court nominations. 6. Dan and others aren't really sure how this makes them feel plus they don't really want to drink poison. 7. Spoiler alert: Moshe123's gun was empty, it was just a blank.

And Freddie is in the back of the room just cooking his cholent. Until he announces that there are TWO menu choices, Pareve Cholent or Vegetable Lasagna. While etech0 figured out that they are both poisoned.


Repeat x100.

And then Hilary walks into the room with the most confidence a candidate has had in recent history. She is so confident that she eats both the Pareve Cholent and Vegetable Lasagna. Everyone is the room is aghast, they don't know how this happened, could it be Comey is behind this poisoning or was it that her Obamacare premiums were to high to get her the help she needed.

Everyone stared as she choked and was cast into oblivion on November, 8, 2016 the last day she was heard from in the public eye.

Moshe123, ilherman, hachover, Baruch, ExGingi, Dan, Freddie, etech0, and the rest of America are in total shock and hope that so long as Trump doesn't eat any Pareve Cholent and Vegetable Lasagna and stays true to his supreme court nominees this may be the greatest thing to happen since the CSR and GC's.

But remember this may be the beginning of the end...

P.S. Thanks to cognitive dissonance aygart, Michael Moore, and Scott Adams knew the whole time that Trump could win, unfortunately for JTZ he may be off DDF for the next 4 years due to his mandatory 3 times daily consumption of CROW!

Nov 8 : Time to edit the wiki. Biggest upset in American History according to Michael Isikoff.

As things turns out, the most prescient view on this election was that of Michael Moore! Though Scott Adams is also claiming a high view level of prescience.

So you don't have a problem with his promise for tax plan for the middle working class that is a giveaway to the rich and big businesses?
I see benefits for the middle class too. The cap on pass through taxes are tremendous for any small business owner. SALT is the big thing for those like you and I living in high tax states. Considering the percentage of taxes pad by the 1% any tax cut will benfit them more.

There is a thread for this but check who favors this bill and who doesn't and you will have your answer who it is better for.
I just found a new supply of forks!

That's what it seems to me,  the typical party beliefs.

Entitlement VS Tax cuts.
My understanding is that there are tax cuts for the middle class in this tax bill.

The problem? 1.5 Trillion in lost revenue.

Now according to Trump he wants to cut spending on government programs, "which will impact the middle class" ( is what I'm reading everywhere ) therefore the tax plan is bad.

But the cuts in in government has nothing to do with the tax plan.

Am I missing something?

My trolling comments? LOL

It is so obvious that party affiliation/never Trumpism is so very highly correlated to whether or not people like this bill.

What percent of middle/low income R's favor the bill? Leave the other party out of it.

Also you might want to check who the pass-through benefits the most. Hint: not small businesses.

Of course it benefits the rich mor ethan the middle class. How could any tax cut not benefit those who pay more taxes more than those who pay less?

You completely avoided the question. You claimed this only about parties. So I will ask again.
